        Throw us a bone. Post the SKP file example so we can see what you've got going on.

          Using my "special psychic powers" πŸ˜• I'd say that you perhaps have three or more lines meeting at a common 'node'.
          You are selecting two lines and trying to weld them into a curve... but of course the other unselected line[s] instantly breaks the curve where it's touching [just like what happens if you draw a line onto an arc, it 'splits' the arc!] = failure !!
          Remember that you can only 'weld' a 'curve' from a set of edges that are continuously joined end-to-end, and which have no other edges touching them [except perhaps at the very ends of this potential 'curve']...
